### 4/5 — Update problems

*2024-11-05*

Since the last update my weekly goal resets to 1 day every week. It will never stay as what I set it as the last week 

- also lost all my data in the update but the weekly goal reset is the most annoying part

### 2/5 — Well it used to be good

*2024-06-30*

I’ve had this app for over a year and loved it. It was so simple and easy to use. They updated it and now the main thing I used it for is gone. I used to love looking through the days to see when I went to the gym very easily and how often I was going. Now I have to click through each day to tell if I went or not. Or I have to pay a premium price. Also I can’t even log a workout without choosing what I did but the choices are so minimal that I always have to just choose some random thing that isn’t even the workout I did. For example, hiking, I had to choose cardio and walking. Sadly I deleted it and will be searching for a new one.

### 1/5 — The new app update ruined everything

*2024-06-02*

I wish I hadn’t of updated to the new version of the app because once I did, I lost all my data from the past 2 1/2 years that I’ve been using this app. The one thing it was supposed to do was TRACK when you workout and then goes & erases it all. 

I hate that because now there’s no way to get my previous data back. The new features are fine but I downloaded this to use as a simple tracker, being able to add notes is nice - but all the extra features are unnecessary. 

You could’ve at least warned us we’d loose our data after updating!

### 1/5 — Update changed app for the worse

*2024-05-30*

Before the update this app was beautiful for its simplicity. It was extremely good at what it did and kept everything organized to motivate you getting into the gym. 

However the new update falls into the same boring genre of trying to spend more time playing with the app than helping you get in the gym.

### 1/5 — Update disaster

*2024-05-30*

Loved the previous version (which was minimal, but ideal for a minimalistic tracker). After update the app is a disaster. I lost all my logged data due to update… And then I lost it again after I tried the new version for a couple of weeks. So the new app failed at literally the only thing it was supposed to do: keep track.

The new version is so much worse than the previous version. even if it would not lose the data, every change that was made is for the worse. So much less intuitive to use, visualization of logged training is basically nonexistent. And literally everybody agrees: there were several good reviews before the update, while since the update there is a flood of 1-star reviews. Should be crystal clear to the developer that the update was a huge mistake.

**Developer response:** Hi there, I understand that this is frustrating. To help you, please contact me via gymday.app/contact.

### 1/5 — Data erased

*2024-05-28*

Wy is this the second time this month that my previous data has been erased, the whole reason for this app was for me to be able to keep track of myself going to the gym and now a years worth is gone for an update I never needed. So infuriated, that I'm finding a new app.

### 1/5 — App completely changed

*2024-05-23*

Downloaded the app as a simple one-click "gym or no gym day" habit tracker. It has more in-depth options now, which is nice if that's what you're looking for, but it's completely different now than what it started as. Also will not log data without logging into Apple ID now. Deleted app.

### 1/5 — Recent updates ruined perfect app

*2024-05-21*

Please return the app to the way it was, this new version is horrible and completely destroyed the reason I used it. Literally the app was perfect there was no reason to update it.

I just wanted a simple tracker where I could click the days I worked out and visually track previous weeks X/4 results. This new side scroll option is horrible. I don’t want to add details I just want to mark the days I worked out and be able to quickly see previous weeks week by week.

Why did you do this!?!?!? It’s horrible.

**Developer response:** Hi there, I understand your frustration. Could you please contact me via gymday.app/contact?

### 2/5 — New update deleted past data

*2024-05-20*

I enjoyed the simplicity of tracking my workouts, but with the new update that was made to the app without my permission all past data was wiped out. The new version doesn’t show the count of workouts per week? There seems to be a big bug with the update.

**Developer response:** Hi there, I understand your frustration. Could you please contact me via gymday.app/contact?

### 2/5 — Updates Wipe Out Workout History

*2024-05-18*

This is two straight years now where I try to use this app to simply keep track of how many gym workouts I log for the year (my goal is 250) and the app posts an update that I didn’t permit and it completely erases my data (both have come in the middle of the year no less).

VERY FRUSTRATING! I liked how simple the app was but I literally have had to log my workouts on a physical calendar to avoid losing this year-long information due to the app’s attempt to get me to pay money for features that I was never seeking 😤

**Developer response:** Hi there, I understand your frustration. Could you please contact me via gymday.app/contact?
